Trump vows NYC GOP Rep. Nicole Malliotakis will uphold ‘Judeo-Christian principles’

NEW YORK — Former President Donald Trump implored New York City Republicans on Saturday to vote for Rep. Nicole Malliotakis in defense of “Judeo-Christian principles.”

In a private teleconference call with GOP voters, Trump, 76, heartily endorsed Malliotakis over her opponent, Democrat Max Rose, in the race to represent New York’s 11th Congressional District, which covers Staten Island and parts of southern Brooklyn.

“We want free speech, the Second Amendment protected and the Judeo-Christian principles of our nation’s founding,” Trump said, promising Malliotakis would uphold those things if re-lected, according to a recording of the remarks obtained by The New York Daily News.
